Negotiations ongoing for security deal with Israel: Syria

Damascus [Syria], September 14: Syria's interim president has confirmed negotiations to reach a security deal between his country and Israel which has repeatedly attacked its war-shattered neighbour since the overthrow of Bashar Al Assad in December.
Israel and Syria, who have been officially at war since 1948, reached a disengagement pact in 1974. The accord, originally brokered after the 1973 war, established a buffer zone on the Golan Heights under UN supervision to separate Israeli and Syrian forces.
"Israel considered with the fall of the regime, Syria has pulled out from the 1974 agreement although Syria from the first moment demonstrated its commitment to it," Ahmed Al-Sharaa said in a TV interview aired on Friday night. (DPA)
